Destination Marketing Campaigns

Our co-founder, Muthuri Kinyamu led the Great Migration Social Media Takeover campaign on behalf of Kenya Tourism Board in 2016. We have also worked with counties like Turkana County to position, promote and package the destination to attract tourists, investors and change perceptions. By leveraging the power of social media, stunning visuals and influencers, we deliver great campaigns to counties, regional associations and properties seeking a bigger piece of the pie.

Property Promotion

We seek to collaborate with you in marketing your tourism product by creating content that will give you an edge in this fiercely competitive industry. The modern-day traveller has a wide range of tools to use in choosing their next destination, among them unfettered access to social media. Through social media and our ecosystem of content creators, we develop content such as blog posts, trending campaigns, HD photos and professional videos to appeal to this new age of consumers for whom traditional marketing methods just don’t make the cut anymore.

Case Studies

Scene Tourism in Kenya: Partnership Models for Destination Marketing ( Part 2)” by Turnup.Travel with case studies of our work with both national and county governments, regional associations, valued trade partners, corporates and content creators. Below are some case studies

SAFARICOM: MOMBASA IG TOUR AND PANDA SGR NA MPESA

Turnup.Travel sourced and managed 10 influencers on behalf of Squad Digital for #PandaSGRNaMpesa and Safaricom sponsored Mombasa IG Tour to educate the public about *639# product and we sourced influencers (paid) for the online campaign to boost the campaign and drive adoption plus usage.

Turnup.Travel also curated the nightlife experience during the weekend.

TECNO MOBILE KENYA

Tecno Mobile Kenya commissioned a project to film a Camon CX Lifestyle Video: SGR/ Kisite Mpunguti/ Voyager Beach Resort and paid for the video. We spent two days filming (drone footage DSLR, Go-Pro) to document the trip promoting Camon CX and Camon CX Air devices to help them leverage travel as a passion point for millennials and promote the brand.

A 2017 research into the travel habits of Kenyans by Saffir Africa revealed that millennials are key drivers of domestic tourism and most holiday travellers are influenced by digital platforms, mainly social media, search engines, online agents and blogs.

A Nielsen global online study found that they continue to be most willing to pay extra for sustainable offerings—who are willing to pay more for products and services that come from companies who are committed to positive social and environmental impact.
